The club manager posed shirtless for the publication, showing off his six-pack and smothering himself in soapy water as he pretended to wash a car.

He was spotted showing off his muscles again yesterday at Studio 23 gym in Essex, where he lifted weights.

Kirk admitted he didn't know who Natasha Giggs - who is rumoured to be going into the house also - was, but when the reporter described what she looked like he said he'd be keen.

The estranged wife of Ryan Giggs' brother Rhodri, who had an affair with the footballer, may clash with glamour model Nicola McLean who said she would hate to go on the show with her .

Frankie Cocozza is also thought to be going into the luxury pad, and Kirk said he was looking forward to having a bromance with him, and they could call themselves Team Kinky, an amalgamation of their names.

Denise Welch, comedienne Ruby Wax, Irish model Georgia Salpa and Natalie Cassidy are also thought to be going on the show.

Kirk also launched a scathing attack on ex and co-star Lauren Pope, saying he was expecting a text from her after he outed her as 30, not 27.

'I’ll reply the same as I always do when she texts me: "Lauren, please delete my number. It’s getting on my nerves now"'. And I don’t understand why she’s still wearing those skimpy outfits in the winter'

He said he hated the revealing red dress, with splits up the sides that she wore at the Breaking Dawn premiere in November.

'I didn’t really understand that. It’s like a cry for help or something.

'It was like "Urgh". It was like seeing my mum wearing it. I’m not being b*****, but cover up man.

'I don’t think I was in love with Lauren at all.

Dreamer: The 23-year-old also said he hoped to get a reality show featuring his father Mick and concentrating on the new hotel they're building, and he would also like to be the next The Bachelor

'She was over me quick, man. I saw her in the papers all over men instantly. Like the Made In Chelsea boy Spencer [Matthews]. She even made a point to text me that. I was like, “Lauren, go away and delete my number.” And she was like, “Alright, I’ll go with my Chelsea boy.” Please do!

The club manager spoke about his ex, porn star Gemma Massey who he claims he was in love with.

'I called my mum up and told her I was seeing a girl, and she was like "Great. What does she do?" and I was like, "She’s a porn star". And she was like "No! None of that!" But I told my mum I really liked her, so I took her round to meet her and my mum rung me up afterwards, saying "Kirk, I’m happy for you

'But that’s over now anyway... No going back. Her job was really hard for me. She could have been my wife. I’d have married her.

'I actually thought I was in love with Lauren but I realised after with Gemma that I didn’t love Lauren. The feelings I had for her were nothing compared to what I had for Gemma.

'I always told her that if it wasn’t for her job then I could have taken things more seriously. She always knew we were just dating and that it wasn’t a relationship. Don’t fall in love with a porn star is all I can say'

Kirk said he doesn't regret leaving TOWIE but felt hurt when the producers of the show did not try and and make him stay.

The reality star is also keen to see his own reality show, concentrating on his and father Mick's new hotel they are building.

He also said he would jump at the chance to do The Bachelor.
